(e) How long each employee was out during his or her DCFMLA leave; and

(f) Whether each request was for intermittent leave or for an extended period of time.

1611.2

After an initial compliance review in FY 2010, OHR shall determine each agency's compliance with the DCFMLA on a quarterly basis. Beginning with the first quarter in FY 2011, a quarterly assessment of the factors contained in § 1611.1 shall be conducted by each agency's director or his or her designee, and a report thereof shall be sent to OHR. OHR shall make an end of the fiscal year assessment of the quarterly reports and submit the results to the City Administrator.
